April 2

Bench

1x5x125
1x4x125 fffuuuu had the last rep, no WIM.
1x3x125 more fail. note to self: if you hit the pins in the first rep, rack it and start over.

did some db bench with 40's for fun

2x7x40

DL
1x5x255

felt nice, did another rep for form checking.

1x255

dips

aesthetic update

i look a lot better around 160 pounds than 140 pounds. the road to 170 continues...

I'd try the Rip set-up. Jerking the bar off the ground is not good and means you'll involve less muscle mass (hams, glutes) and have a greater chance of injury.

Bench

3x5x125 - might do that again....last rep of last set was poor


DL
1x5x270 -heavy as hell, i'm switching to mixed grip, this sht is getting hard to hold.

April 19

first workout post black friday , sleeping is all messed up due to a retarded amount of hours listening to podcasts/grinding. drank for the first time in months on friday, good thing about being a 160 pounds a non regular drinker is that you can catch a pretty good buzz off 4 beers.
